The multi-port USB-C 5Gbps AXAGON HMC-8HLSA hub 9in1 expands your laptop, computer or phone with nine ports. You can easily and quickly connect a monitor, three USB devices, Gigabit Ethernet network, headphones with microphone and an SD card reader to your computer at the same time via the double-sided USB-C connector. You also get the possibility to supply laptop using Power Delivery technology at the same time. The port replicator will thus provide you with a simple and compact 9-in-1 docking station not only for Windows laptops but also for Apple laptops such as MacBook Air or MacBook Pro.

The USB hub offers three USB outputs with standard USB-A connectors. Two of them with 5Gbps speed and one with 480Mbps speed for mouse or keyboard connection. The hub can also handle the permanent connection of multiple external drives at the same time. Transfer rate up to 5Gb/s thanks to the fast USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface.

The USB-C connector is reserved only for charging of phone or laptops using Power Delivery 3.0 technology with a power of up to 100W. Connect a suitable USB-C Power Delivery charger into the hub and connect the hub to a laptop that supports Power Delivery. This will also free up one USB-C port on your laptop.

HDMI output provides high quality image up to 4K/60Hz Ultra HD resolution and supports multi-channel audio transmission. High frequencies at popular gaming resolutions of 2K/144Hz or FullHD/240Hz are also supported.

Thanks to HDR (high dynamic range) support, you can enjoy a significantly expanded range of colours and contrasts without restrictions. For video outputs to work properly, the laptop must have a USB-C port with DisplayPort Alternate Mode (DP Alt Mode) support or a Thunderbolt 3 port, Thunderbolt 4 and above.

Gigabit network card extends your computer by a fast and stable network connection, adds the missing RJ-45 network connector or another network card. Card reader supports all versions of SD and microSD cards including SDXC and microSDXC with capacity up to 2TB. The card reader enables simultaneous handling of cards in both slots and direct copying between them. The audio output is connected to a 3.5 mm jack and allows the connection of stereo headphones with a microphone.

The elegant aluminum body ensures not only mechanical resistance, but also passive cooling. Thanks to the Plug and Play and Hot Plug functions, connecting the hub itself is very simple without complicated installation, and peripherals can also be easily connected and disconnected while the computer is running. The hub does not afraid of connection to phones with a USB-C connector. For example, you can connect a flash drive, keyboard, mouse, monitor TV or projector to the phone.
